[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay but why should I, as an employer, GAF who is the best student? I don’t have any jobs for studying and taking tests. I need to know who is the best project manager and best salesperson and best communicator. Mind you, I do think student quality has some overlap with the skills I’m looking for, but you’re the one talking about the “best students.”

I find the obsession over where a person spends 4 years of their life really odd. Especially in the DMV, people seem to take more about predictors of success than actual… success.

And before you accuse me of being a naive populist, [b]I went to Northwestern.[/b][/quote]

You really shouldn't be posting that kind of information online. This is supposed to be anonymous, and since so few people went to Northwestern, revealing that you went there greatly narrows down the possibilities of who you might be. If you just said you went to a top-ranked college, that would make it much harder for people to track you down, but since each individual top-ranked college has precious few students, revealing which top-ranked college you went to can make you easily identifiable.[/quote]
